Editor's note: This story has been updated to include a missing Belvidere/Belvidere North Co-op boys swim team capsule.

Hononegah boys swim coach Christine Kuspa approaches this season with anticipation despite graduating eight key swimmers from a team that won the NIC-10 title for the third consecutive year and took home the sectional title last year for the first time in the program's history.

"I have a lot of excitement because these boys have been waiting for their opportunity," she said. "I have a lot of hard workers. We're not the same group that we had last year, but I think we will do a good job. It's a positive atmosphere on the team and these boys are passionate about what they do and what they want to accomplish as a team."
